Well, I am back visiting my mom in the Bay Area again, and I did my ‘getting up insanely early to miss the Los Angeles and Bay Area traffic thing’ again. I just have a few pictures I took, as the sun came up over the mountains North of LA.
I have always wondered about the actual, technical difference between clouds and fog. Is fog just low clouds? And if you find fog in a mountain pass, is it fog, because it is at ground level to you, or is it clouds, because it is far above sea level? I passed this fog bank/altitude-challenged cloud bit of fluffy stuff near the pass at the top of the mountain, and it was hovering midway between the top of the mountains and the lake in the valley floor. This just makes it more confusing.
Then I took a couple of quick photos of the sun coming up from the rest area in the pass, before descending and doing the long, lengthwise drive up the Central Valley of California once again.
Now I have one more question for you. What do you want to see while I am here? I mean, this is an interactive blog. A partnership, if you will. So if you like the flower and dog and sunset and city view pictures I usually end up taking, that’s fine. But if there is something else you want to see or know about the Bay Area, I might just try to oblige you.
Pouring My Art Out 
I’d like to see you not take pictures while driving. 🙂
Me too… but I don’t listen to me either.
I’ve got no requests as such… I have no idea what’s there. So maybe it would be great to see some things that make the bay area what it is 😊
If you get bored, I have done hundreds of posts on this blog, of The Golden Gate, from every angle and on and under it, the city, they bay, museums, parks, animals, points of interest, adventures, and even family stuff, and drinking to excess with friends. It would be interesting to have someone type: ‘San Francisco’, or ‘Bay Area’ into the search bar, and see how many posts pop up. But it is all there.
Ill let you know how much i find!
That would be awesome.
Okay, sorry, that sounded like a homework assignment… but I have been coming here many times every year, and I grew up here, and I have done a lot of posts that show the Bay Area in ways that most people never see it.
Yeah i know lol… Sorry.
Ill have a look through your posts and see what i can find. Have fun there 😊
Just last year I was in San Francisco three days in a row, and did a lot of posts about travelling around in China Town and Fisherman’s Wharf. It might have been at Christmas time. We walked on the Golden Gate bridge. Lots of artistic views of the city.
Nice… Ill have a look! 😊
YAY!
Clouds and fog are the same thing its all a matter of your point of view ….. kind of like politicians.
Redwoods ….. there are some real nice redwoods in the mountains between the bay and the coast.
You mean Muir Woods… oooh… I haven’t done that for a while. There is also a really nice English pub near there. If I can’t make it, I will include the redwood that is across the street from my mom’s house.
There are lots of good redwood places …. one of my favorites is Tunitas Creek Road ….. it is a narrow winding road that winds through a redwood forest for several miles …. it is a little south of Half Moon Bay …. then up the mountain.
I need to Google that. I have probably been there, when I was younger. I have always loved camping in the redwoods, further North.
